Introduction - KennyChumsky from Youtube
Hello fellow Scrappers! I am:
Elena Evans-Chumsky
the wife of KennyChumsky from Youtube
I am new to Forums and just came across this one and love it. Therefore I joined and now I am introducing ourselves.
We currently and have been living without a security of a paycheck for over 3 years. We have a house, three kids and live in Port St Lucie, FL. To make a living we Ebay, Youtube, Craigslist, Yardsale & SCRAP! Or any other avenues which are ethical that come our way. We are not afraid of working hard for our money and enjoy the luxury of not having to report to a boss, just the bills! LOL
Kenny has been scrapping for over 20 years on and off, while I have just learned throughout the years we have been together. We still are learning every day. Here in Florida we are lucky to find scrap right off the side of the road constantly.
Even though we are versed and experience at certain types of scrap (Copper, Insulated Copper (Wire), Stainless Steel, CBM's, Steel, Irony/Sheet/Cast/Extruded Aluminum, etc...) I would consider us full time - learning gurus. We learn the hard way at times and then other times lucky enough to have support of forums like this or other video's that help us learn as well.
We do not pretend to be these big experts that own multimillion dollar scrap yards or chemists that know ever dangerous material in what we scrap, but we know what makes us money and are out to learn any more obvious or hidden ways to make more money. I personally like to learn the risks of scrapping (Mercury in bulbs, Beryllium Oxide in Microwaves, Appliances/Tv's can hold Charges, etc...) while my husband is the opposite. He just likes to get in and smash it up and learn sometimes the hard way.
Either way we enjoy what we do and together make a great team. I know that safety and ethics are very important in scrapping and even though this is not one of our best videos I thought it was the most appropriate video for our introduction since if you see any other video of Kenny smashing stuff up without safety equipment you will understand his point of view (right or wrong). Please do not view this video if you can not handle an reenactment of a dead person and a bloody finger.
If you are interested in learning more about us please check out our Youtube Channel or BiggerHammer Blog
From there we hope to join the Scrapping Forum family to learn and share Scrapping Techniques & Tips.
PS
If you read this far... WOW!!! Thanks LOL
